Men bashing,and materialism part 3


Watched an awful daytime tv programme today ITV's Loose Women, The format is simple, 5 female celebs "chat" about "important issues" and give their opinions ( ad nauseum) in a balanced discussion.
What I saw, was plain man bashing. The celebs in their matey lad-ette way argued and bad mouthed ,laughed and ridiculed, and I found myself getting quite angry at the unfairness of it all. Would ITV of even the Beeb allow men to have such a programme? Indeed not! You would never see a group of men flirting over a sexy female actress ( well not on a tv chat show ), or slagging off their wives or girlfriends? But women deem it ok to do the same to men! This whole man bashing mentality pervades tv, and the press, and I find it distasteful and smacks of double standards.

Thought of a few more items I would grab in a fire ( see below)
The silver candlesticks Chris bought from an antique shop in Whitby, when we went up to Nuala's sister's cottage for a weekend. It was a lovely break ! The table was a purchase from Roger's Jones auctioneers from Colwyn Bay. Not complete ,(it has lost its folding leaves) it is very old ( Circa Early 1700s) and has a knackered charm of its own. The needle point is one from Janet, all the way back from 1991!, in chronicles life in Sheffield.
